    Dear All DP Users,

    I have received some websites with different url but they looking same. I think they are mirror sites.
    What are mirror sites, what effect from mirror sites link? They are good or not. How they affect link popularity?
    Is any problem to get links from mirror sites?

    Please tell me about mirror sites.
    Thanks

    Mirror sites as name suggest are true copy of the original site. Which means all the content on one site is exact copy of the other site.

    There is a very high chance of duplicate panelty and getting links will have no effect or at worst can effect your own site for linking to a penalized site.

    I agree with SEO expert

    There are some Directories on C-class IPs which you can see on www.web-directories.ws

    They have same submission form and listings are also same and they will probably use the same database

    In this case when Google searches the two sites It will think that one site is duplicate of others and will simply ignore the links from one directory
